• To drop/add a course or to make a change in the grading option (graded vs. S/U):

The signature of the faculty member is required for all drops/adds once the term has begun;

Consult your advisor regarding any changes, even though an advisor’s signature is not required on the drop/add slip (except first semester for first-year students). You may save yourself the grief/cost of a bad choice. You are always welcome to contact Mary Cisar (cisar@stolaf.edu) or Cheryl LaCroix in the Office of the Registrar and Academic Advising (lacroix@stolaf.edu) with questions, too.

Pick up a drop/add slip at the Office of the Registrar and Academic Advising service window (Tomson Hall, level 1);

Complete it in full;

Have it signed by the instructor of the course being dropped/added;

Return the slip in person to the Office of the Registrar and Academic Advising window.

• NOTES:

S/U option: if you take a course S/U, any GE credit attached to that course will NOT be applied to your record. See policy above for additional facts about S/U (and to learn the difference between S/U and P/N grading).

Off-Campus Programs Students who are currently enrolled in St. Olaf off-campus programs may add or drop courses by sending an email to grund@stolaf.edu; same rules regarding faculty permission as above.

Prior to the beginning of any term: To add an open course or drop any course, complete a drop/add slip and bring it to the window, TOH 149; faculty signature required to add a closed course.

Once the term has begun, faculty signature is required to add or drop any course. For first-year students in their first semester, advisor signature is also required.

Changes of registration are processed via email only if the student is away from campus (e.g., on an off-campus program, on leave of absence, breaks between semester, away for the summer).
